Re: [Rdkit-discuss] Can we use Rdkit to generate pdbqt file for AutoDock Vina?

[<183...@qq...>]

Hi,


I've got a solution now.
Here are the keys:
1. OpenBabel can convert SDF to PDBQT. During conversion, non-polar hydrogen will be removed.
2. OpenBabel can assign Gasteiger charge to molecule. Although the assigned charge is different from OpenBable and AutoDockTools, AutoDock Vina will omit the charges in input file.

Hi there,

Regarding to open-source CADD tools, Rdkit and AutoDock are really essential.
Can we use Rdkit to generate pdbqt file for AutoDock Vina?
Please also inform if you have solutions other than Rdkit.


I am trying to leverage the MGLtoos now.


Best regards
